Epistle to the Son of the Wolf by Bahá'u'lláh
page 21 of 134 (15%)
And still again in another connection: "The Sun of Divine Utterance can
never set, neither can its radiance be extinguished. These sublime words
have, in this day, been heard from the Lote-Tree beyond which there is no
passing: ‘I belong to him that loveth Me, that holdeth fast My
commandments, and casteth away the things forbidden him in My Book.’"

And still again in another connection: "This is the day to make mention of
God, to celebrate His praise, and to serve Him; deprive not yourselves
thereof. Ye are the letters of the words, and the words of the Book. Ye
are the saplings which the hand of Loving-kindness hath planted in the
soil of mercy, and which the showers of bounty have made to flourish. He
hath protected you from the mighty winds of misbelief, and the tempestuous
gales of impiety, and nurtured you with the hands of His loving
providence. Now is the time for you to put forth your leaves, and yield
your fruit. The fruits of the tree of man have ever been and are goodly
deeds and a praiseworthy character. Withhold not these fruits from the
heedless. If they be accepted, your end is attained, and the purpose of
life achieved. If not, leave them in their pastime of vain disputes.
Strive, O people of God, that haply the hearts of the divers kindreds of
the earth may, through the waters of your forbearance and loving-kindness,
be cleansed and sanctified from animosity and hatred, and be made worthy
and befitting recipients of the splendors of the Sun of Truth."

In the fourth I_sh_ráq (splendor) of the I_sh_ráqát (Tablet of Splendors)
We have mentioned: "Every cause needeth a helper. In this Revelation the
hosts which can render it victorious are the hosts of praiseworthy deeds
and upright character. The leader and commander of these hosts hath ever
been the fear of God, a fear that encompasseth all things, and reigneth
over all things."
